2022 Domaine Hubert Lignier Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru “La Riotte”, Burgundy, France
ABOUT THIS WINE
Vines planted in 1959.
Located at the foot of Clos Saint Denis, on a gentle slope, in a clay-limestone soil packed with small stones. The wines are usually generous and open, even in their youth. They are very easy-to-drink and characterized by lush red fruit. Drink preferably within ten years of bottling.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
The vineyard is mainly composed of old vines planted through massale selections, with the oldest dating back to 1936. Since the 1990s, they have embraced soil cultivation practices such as plowing and hoeing, excluding the use of herbicides and insecticides.
At the estate, a conscientious approach to both the vines and the surrounding environment, as well as the preservation of biodiversity, is carefully considered. This becomes even more crucial considering the impact on the vineyard in the face of climate change.
Since 2006, the estate has been following organic practices, and in 2016, Laurent initiated the “AB” (Agriculture Biologique) certification process, which was officially certified in 2019.
